I'm intrigued about 1401, Never known a Commander have a 4 speed.
It's had one from new, apparently the wrong box was ticked not sure if the wrong boxes were ticked for 1401 or for 1402/1403. Quite possibly for 1402/1403, as the route they were brought for (441 Blyth to Wansbeck Hospital) did have a bit of fast running). But nonetheless they seem to cope well on the Blyth Expresses and give the Geminis a run for their money.
